You're not subtle, but you don't want to be. Fast, loud, and dramatic, you want people to notice you, and then get out of the way. In a world full of sheep, you're a raging bull.

subhaanollah, alhamdulillah....jazaakumullah...

Kupanjatkan syukur kehadhrat Allah SWT., selawat & salam ke atas Nabi besar kita, Muhammad SAW, ahli keluarganya, sohabah2nya, imam2 & segala pengikutnya sekalian...

Where to begin? I can only be thankful & grateful to Him for giving me grace and letting me be here to continue to serve Him and be amongst my loved ones.

I am so thankful for the flood of Du'as & good wishes from family and friends and especially when i read the outpouring response from our multiply network frens whom i know personally & those I don't,thanks for your concerns, Only Allah may reward your kindness

I am doing as well as can be expected. To answer some queries: I had a few fractures mostly on my left pelvic bone but alhamdulillah after a thorough scan, I had no internal injuries & need no surgery. I was informed by the doctors that the cracks may heal completely on its own just that it will take time & I may be using walking aid for the next 2 months. I am also undergoing therapy and (trying to do) some of them @home.

I need further Du'as from everyone especially so that I have strength & patience to overcome frsutrations that I sometimes get.u know even the little things can get to me if I'm not watchful, trying to pick up something from the floor or walking the short distance to the bathroom or even remaining in a single position for long can tire me out. Family is very supportive especially Hubbi that I sometimes worry that he may be very tired from work/class/& taking care of me...Tears fell from seeing the TLC and support i get from him.. I'm also especially touched to see my NIE frens coming up and allaying my worries from the upcoming assignments and interceding to my lecturers on my behalf. My thanks also go to my understading lecturers..! of them came to see me in hospital...alhamdulillah, subhaanollah...

Aku mesti selalu beringat bahawa ada org lain yg ada di dlm keadaan lebih memerlukan dariku... Ada yg menghadapi lebih banyak ujian. Senantiasalah kita bersyukur kpd Allah SWT, berusaha utk sentiasa dapat menjalankan kewajipan kita sebaik2nya & dapat melalui segala rintangan dgn penuh sabar & redha...insyaa Allah.. Mohon semua dapat mengambil iktibar dan mendoakan kami.

As a gd fren who had visited me had said, there is always blessings in disguise. Sometimes this thing happen in order to prevent from something much bigger happening. Wallahu'Alaam...I know my perspective towards life has changed. Seeing another day, watching my beloved and able to walk even though very slow filled me with so much gratitude that I sometimes think I might burst...

Babe, I love you, take the best care of yourself & dun fret abt me... let's pray together for a full & speedy recovery.

Forgiveness in Action

I'm not condoning what you had done

I'm just trying to make peace with myself so I could move on

I am thankful for the day that you did me wrong, the days I've had ever since and the days I'll continue to have, God willing...

[when i look in the mirror...]

Isn't it super-fast how time flies? pejam celik, pejam celik...it's been almost 2 months I've been in the maktab perguruan... amidst the hectic assignments which had bombarded me mercilessly, I am feeling the over-whelming emotions of being in the pits...for those who are not in the know, well "the Pit" usually arise after a tumultuous and OTT introduction & exposure into a particular field. In my field, well, there are loads of negativity & uncaringness from people around. People are very surprised when they asked about what i do...i tried to explain & generally they will just smile in a way that imply to me "i still dunno what you're talking abt, & i'm not as interested as i thot i was" or "i think you're just making things up & so pls shut up so i can go elsewhere & blab with sumone else"

"the Pit" is not just induced by people as mentioned above... after numerous visits to institutions... tonnes of videos & other information media that I have to digest in order to satisfy my required module, I felt so sorry for people with special needs (especially) and their families/friends..i know some may thinks it's un-PC to feel sorry for them and that the last thing in the world that they need will be people's sympathy, i can't help but felt for them...i'll be lying if i say otherwise cos that was one of the many reasons i applied for this..

I know the road in fornt of me is an unpaved one

I'm grateful to God that i am now no longer blind and deaf to things surrounding me.

=write here right now=

it's been such a long time since my last rant.. very tired to think & school had just started the last 3 days (wed cancelled, thurs holiday).. Sooo many readings in sooo little time... Maybe i shd have subscribed to thatr power reading thingy...assignments have started pouring in & i'm soaked...figuratively speaking dat is... I've been staring @the pc wondering how should i start my paper, praying for ilham..then i decided to msg my coursemates... haiyah still no revelations... the text given were full of technical mambo-jambo for all i know, it may have been written in German.. i read 1st para & re-read it again to digest and then moved on to 2nd para then i realised that i'd completely lost the meaning & so i had to re-read the 1st para all over again...

A fren said she is having a similar prob. She attributed this phenomenal yet common condition to long-ago-school-leaver-itis... I dunno if she's right but i hope this epidemic is not virulent..it isn't as if a shot of antibiotics can cure it... urghh.. and i'm still having the physical remnants of phleghmatic coughs and runny nose..which resulted in me trailing a line of tissue papers in my wake (don't worry i picked them up already...littering is an offense)

In spite of all these challenges..i'm very grateful that i had this chance.. it is an opportunity for me to go in depths into the world of special needs & exceptional children...besides, compared to the 1st bacth, we're having it pretty easy... The 1st batch had to work & complete the course requirements at the same time..boleh kenoneng dibuatnyer...

Now, feeling relatively better, i've to soldier on with my tutorials...thanks for the du'a kind friends.. Till we meet again, God willing!

anything? whatever...

When we go out for a bite, with all variety of food available out there..we can be spoilt for choice... and sometimes when you're really hungry but you really have no idea what to eat and your partner is feeling about the same, the discussion on where & what to eat can lead to an all out war if one's not careful...

Picture this, we're at the counter trying to order some food or perhaps with a wait-person taking down our order..we'll look at the menu, flip it to the last page & back to the front, stomachs thundering, look at each other, look at the menu again & finally I ask, "so what are you gonna eat, hubbi?" Hubbi shrugs his shoulder, look at his menu & say "aah you decide laah...anything also can..." Grrr..then I go, "they don't sell anything.." then Hubbi turns the table around and ask me "ok so what do you wanna eat?" & i'll be like "watever.." Hubbi goes "and what makes you think they sell whatever?" It's kinda funny typing this up but in the heat of the ravenous moment, the phrase a hungry man is an angry man is an understatement of the century...pfftt...

but hey, waydeminit...what's this??

hah...they do sell Anything and Whatever now...

Close call

I had been putting off writing about our trip to PK & KL for abt 2 wks now... & just when tonight I thot it's now or never, i'm afraid the idea might not even see the light of day (pun intende here) Why? Well, something happened today that took my mind up totally... (i count my lucky stars folks that IT was only my mind .. )

MIL & I went out today.. since her legs are not giving her much problem, it was a good day to be out & about town... I sent her back at around 6pm & after 'Asr prayers I quickly head home. You know the escalator heading up towards Causeway pt/MRT station from Woodlands Interchange, how high it was..? & If you don't, well.. it was about 2x the usual mrt escalator height...pret-ty steep there... a guy was standing 2 steps up from in front of me & there was a nother guy infront of him we were all following escalator riding regulations by standing on the left hand-side.. about 3/4 up, the 1st guy suddenly dropped onto the guy in front of me & in a split second both of them were pushed on top of me. I only had 1 hand on the railing and the other was holding a plastic bag filled with my favourite things (3 thick library books & food). I yelped, bent my knees and lowered half of my body (all those boring facts abt the laws of the gravity came into play here, guys..) the other half of my body were flailed to the back..All praises to Allah, before we reached the top, the guy in front of me managed to stabilize himself and the guy who just dropped onto him like a sack of potatoes...(I think he blacked out for i noticed him rubbing his head) both of them apologized and i was just too shocked so i just mumbled something i wasn't even sure what... I looked down and some other people below us were also rubbing their chest relieved perhaps it didn't turn out to be a stampede or perhaps in this case, a rolling-pede?

Guys, seriously...before this i used to not care abt the public announcement ..you know the ones...where u're supposed to take the lift if you're feeling unwell or carrying loads of stuff? So, before we "aw,shucks-no-it-won't-happen-to-me" , think..what if there are kids behind? pregnant ladies? the elderlies? what kind of a tra-domino-gic effect we could start...When I looked down the escalator, the notion that we could have rolled down & knocked people down like bowling pins, literally shook my knees..i had to sit down for a while...& what if bits of my clothes were stuck in between the gaps there...urgghh.. while recounting the incident to hubbi, my over-active imagination is working overtime (oh so not helping) that I cried and cried... Hubbi held me and kept saying sorry but i knew it wasn't his fault...it's no one's fault.. it just show how things we took for granted can turn ugly in a split second.. so guys, be careful okay... & please, stay behind the yellow line..!

sekali ku tepis, *kelepap* dia jatuh atas muka direktor ahmad nisfu....

had more time to think of my previous post... yeah, i was angry... now more befuddled & exasperated...

hadn't meant to sound as mean-spirited or bad-tempered as it was supposed to be and never would i use this platform to give out personal lashings before lashing out directly to the person(s) involved. But i had exhausted all means of communication with the intended. Yet the intended buat dono jer.. worse still, the intended wanted..no, demanded to be treated as an adult...well, in my book, to qualify, you first have to be an adult or at least "try to act like one"...haiz...

i'll not brood on it....gotta keep moving forward anyhows... so am praying to be back more cool & collected (refer to figure below)

you say one thing and then you go ahead and do another

get over yourself...

the world doesn't revolve around you

who? me?

Sometimes, life can feel like a job,
But sometimes, if we're lucky, our job can feel like life.

you follow your head when it comes to romance

You follow your head when it comes to romance
Maybe you've been burned before, or maybe you're just too busy changing the world, but when it comes to your love life, you definitely look before you leap. While you might not be cautious in every aspect of your life, love is an area you tread on lightly. Let's face it, you'd rather have a little more control over your emotions, but they're sometimes hard to pin down. So rather than get lost in them, you, and many of us, probably prefer to focus on other aspects of your life.It's not that you don't want love to wash over you so you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. It's just that you'd probably like to fall in love when it best fits into your calendar. Still, with your smarts, you're probably able to sense when you're up for a little romancing and when you're not. Just remember, if you're ever on the fence, you want to fall off on the side where someone's going to catch you. Especially if he's tall, dark, and handsome.

Do You Follow Your Heart or Your Head?

Brought to you by Tickle

At a pharmacy,

Boy : hmmm.... I donno what's good... (while fingering boxes of condoms)
Girl : Aiyah...whatever laaa..no need to be so fussy one...
Boy : u know which one better?

The pair then looked this way & that and blushed hotly when realised that their "discussion" was not privy to just themselves... both chucked the boxes they were holding back to the shelves and made for the exit as if their pants were on fire....
Perhaps the reason people were staring at them aside from the fact that they were loud & behaving rather intimately, might be cos they looked so very young...like secondary sch students...maybe appearances can be deceiving..but looking back at their level of conversation....i think not!

Why It Was None Of Your Business (The Sequel)

Gosh, i spoke too soon...

I'm having a big fat dose of this too, right this minute.... worse, i can't walk away from her...have to tahan this person until lunchtime...God help me! She's sitting right across me and asked me all sorts of question.... why r u temping? are u waiting for admission to any uni? what are u eating? (I was just abt to munch on a piece of bread i brought from home, nasib baik tak tersedak) where do u stay? what time u get up? what time u go to sleep??

AARRGGHHHHHHHHH!!! Just leave me the hell alone, woman!!!!!!!!

i'm so cold...

..that I'm going to the loo every 8 minutes...

..that my fingers felt like they're bitten by frost...

..that my head has gone over the freezing point...

..that I can't speak without twisting my tongue...

nielah manusia...kalau panas, complain...kalau sejuk pon complain...hmmmm

central aircon system is not such a good idea after all.... especially in a tiny enclosed space...

saturday, kacang saturday, day.. DEY!

Had a pre-emp medical check up @9 in the am...all the way in raffles place no less...thankfully it was saturday so the trains were not like a can of sardines as usual although it was quite packed but i can still breathe... had to take x-ray twice becos the 1st time round, the tech exclaimed "your lungs too small!" in a way that could only imply that there was something critically wrong with me (in the medical sense!)... When the series of tortures were almost over, I realized that they had specified my gender wrongly.. So i informed the recep nicely & she (wif snide smiles) replied "oh that's why we asked you to read through before signing the form just now...!" YES, MAM... but amidst all the medical labelling on the 7 paged forms, I was only able to spot my name, address & IC number correctly wif the aid of a magnifying glass...so could u really blame me for overlooking the fact of my gender spelled out in a 3.5 point font? In any case since the report will be sent to emp directly I wisely concluded not to aggravate the kind lady..I smiled, said my ps & my qs and peace was restored...

himself called to say he had a group project discussion & since 1 of his grp member happens to be chups' hubby, we, meaning me & chups saw it as a gd chance to go for another tai-tai session...we dropped off the husbands and headed off to meet up wif our old flames, Ben & Jerry @ Suntec City...Suueeett...tot of popping over to the career fair...BUT we were a week late...duh...Needless to say, the whole place was jammed packed for there was an IT Show in full swing...there was an even announcements asking visitors to visit the show in an hr's time due to crowd...but i doubt any of them paid any mind to it...so the next best thing, we went to a sporting goods/bed & baths sale where we bought some cheap but still good stuff...In fact, we managed to get very good deals on bedsheet sets...further discounts on already discounted prices.. God, i sound like a bleeding aunty-aunty already...

Picked up chups' mom and had quite a discussion in a car wif regards to JAWI, the almost extinct position and its upcoming revival...very intellectual and quite heated too between mother & daughter..& considering the kind of turns & corners chups was throwing that day, I'm happy to report that all of us are in one piece..Then we met the boys for dinner and i guess after quite a long day of threading through traffic & human jams, we were ready to dine & relax...however, luck was not on our side...

firstly, there were so many dishes on the menu we got cock-eyed just by looking at them...however, our feelings were cheated for most of our orders had to be cancelled...reason being:- some of the ingredients & at one time even the cook was not in...haiyahh, mau makan pon susah... & we had double confusion wif seafood & siput...himself kept asking us if "siput boleh makan tak?" Now, is that a trick question? And Din being the normal Din, gave quite an extensive historical account on how the siputs(siput babi, siput sedut, siput gonggong, siput lala) gain their name. Since i'm a kind-hearted gal, I shall not confuse u all by re-counting it...Between chups & meself, we demolished 4 cans of pokka green tea & suffice to say we were already flying higher than the eagles, if there had been one...

Just for fun @ Midnite Part II
